She is a trained banker and studied international agricultural trade and holds a doctorate in agricultural economics.
She has been a member of the expert committee of the Ministry of Climate Protection, Environment, Agriculture and Consumer Protection of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia for the award of grants and research funding under the EU Directive for European Innovation Partnership Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability in NRW, Düsseldorf, since 2014 and Chairwoman since 2023.

Several years of consulting, teaching and research:
Her consulting, teaching and research initially focused on sustainable and strategic corporate management as well as entrepreneurship and the internationalization of companies. She has since expanded her field of consulting. Her current focus is on agile corporate management in the context of strategic corporate development, intra- and entrepreneurship, innovation processes and business model development using agile methods.

Basics of Sustainability Management (Elective module held in the summer semester)
Sustainable management is an important point of reference for many companies, agricultural businesses, and other organizations in the agricultural and food industry when it comes to shaping their business models. This is also because they are confronted with corresponding external social expectations. When introducing new products and processes, implementing investment projects, or making other strategic decisions, consideration of sustainability aspects can be an important factor in gaining the acceptance of stakeholders. In the following course, students will gain an overview of the goals and methods of sustainability management based on relevant literature and practical examples. They will learn about the different stakeholder perspectives, motives, and backgrounds of certain argumentation patterns. In addition, they will use case studies to explore the concrete possibilities and limitations of sustainable management. Prof. Dr. Kussin is another instructor in this module. Module description
Entrepreneurship and Finances (Elective module held in the winter semester)
In mature market economies, in the agricultural and food sector, and especially in primary agricultural production, it is becoming increasingly difficult to grow (quantitatively) in traditional business areas unless international markets are tapped. Existing companies are increasingly pursuing diversification strategies, and non-entrepreneurs are starting businesses in this sector. Starting a business presents many challenges. First, a good business idea must be found, but a founder must also have knowledge in the areas of management, risk hedging, and financing in order to start a business successfully. Module description
Basics of Human Ressource Management (Elective module held in the winter semester)
Industrial engineers and engineers in the agricultural and food industry, as well as managers of family farms, are increasingly finding themselves in a position where they are responsible for managing staff or organizing a workforce shortly after graduating. This requires a basic knowledge of labor law, recruitment, personnel organization, and development, as employees are one of the most important factors in a company's success. In addition, every graduate will sooner or later take on a managerial role. Here, too, it is important to have a basic understanding of personnel organization and the rights of employees and employers. Other instructors in this module are Dr. Abramovski and Ms. Epping. Module description
Business and Communications Management (Compulsory module held in summer semester)
Managers must be able to assess developments in the economic environment and prepare and implement measures in their own area of responsibility in a targeted and strategically sensible manner. Professional management of a company has a significant influence on its success and the sustainability of its business activities. Medium- to long-term strategic management is one of the foundations that influences all areas of corporate management. Regular communication with internal and external stakeholders is also becoming increasingly important for managers. Strategically designed communication management can help to shape these processes professionally and thus contribute positively to the success of the company. Another lecturer in this module is Prof. Dr. Kussin. Module description

Research projectSU with the cooperation partner Pflanzentheke
supported by the Alfons und Brigitte Coppenrath Stiftung Foundation Osnabrück: Final report on the funding of research activities at Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences by the Aloys & Brigitte Coppenrath Foundation under the academic project leadership of Prof. Dr. Karin Schnitker.
The full final report of the research project is available from Prof. Dr. Karin Schnitker upon request.
Research projectSU Hydroponic Outdoor Farm – Development of the micro farm prototype with the case company Pflanzentheke GmbH
supported by the Alfons und Brigitte Coppenrath Foundation Osnabrück: Development of a micro-farm prototype in the field of outdoor hydroponic farming for the resource-efficient and climate-resilient cultivation of fruit and vegetables. Pflanzentheke GmbH and the “Growing Knowledge” working group at Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences are engaged in vertical farming, with a particular focus on hydroponics. Hydroponic vertical farming refers to the cultivation of plants without the use of soil. Hydroponic cultivation usually takes place under controlled environmental conditions (plant factories) and therefore requires a high amount of energy. In contrast, they are pursuing cultivation in semi-protected outdoor cultivation in order to avoid the high energy consumption.
The overarching goal of the start-up and innovation project is the efficient, sustainable, decentralized, independent, and local production of agricultural food using vertical cultivation systems and hydroponic (soilless) cultivation techniques to promote climate-resilient and socioeconomically fair food production. This requires a few steps in advance. One of these is the development and testing of the micro-farm prototype, which is being carried out as part of this research project. The market entry strategy is also being prepared.
Research project within the framework of the Innovative University - GROWTH application: (transfer application by Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences), subproject 3 – Think tanks for innovation, work package 1 – Measures for testing and implementing Open Innovation
Objective of the subproject:
In order to strengthen the necessary capacity for transformation and innovation in the region, innovation-promoting activities and formats from the Creative Lab of the Science Communication Workshop are to be tested in order to support small and medium-sized enterprises and agricultural businesses in particular in initiating and advancing technological developments, withstanding the increased pressure for change, and thus remaining competitive. Both measures will take place at the permanent, decentralized Innovation!Roots locations.
Measure for testing and implementing open innovation:
Open innovation processes will be tested in order to drive innovation processes forward. Open innovation describes the opening up of the operational innovation process to external actors for the purpose of sharing and expanding the company's knowledge base. The basic prerequisites for open innovation are a balanced relationship between benefits and contributions, a relationship of trust, and neutral management of the open innovation process. Here, universities can contribute to the development of sustainable, regional innovation networks with their scientific, non-commercial orientation.
Within the framework of GROWTH, such processes are to be carried out in four fields of action using selected open innovation methods (such as Open Space Beta) as examples. Different open innovation methods will be tested and compared in their application in the university context.
The aim is to develop a systematic approach to open innovation in transfer at universities. The digital platform HowSpace will also be used to test hybrid workshop formats in OI processes.

Member of the Landwirtschaftliche Rentenbank's Startup Advisory Board
Blockchain-based traceability in the production of agricultural products or real-time analysis of soil conditions to control plant protection and fertilization—the agricultural and food industry is a forward-looking sector with enormous potential for innovation. To further strengthen this innovative power, a new start-up funding program was launched in July 2021, enabling young, innovative companies in the industry to receive support in the early financing phase.
Landwirtschaftliche Rentenbank Frankfurt, as a development bank for the agricultural sector and rural areas, now promotes individual start-up financing through low-interest subordinated loans with terms of two to ten years. Together with the BMEL, this form of venture capital is being used to design a support product that takes into account the special features of start-up financing. “Innovation vouchers” for coaching measures, for example, supplement the funding. The entire funding program is being implemented by Landwirtschaftliche Rentenbank on behalf of the BMEL, which has established a start-up expert advisory board to review funding applications, of which the head of the real-world laboratory, Prof. Dr. Karin Schnitker, is a member.
Expert committee of the Ministry for Climate Protection, Environment, Agriculture, and Consumer Protection of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia for the granting of subsidies and research funding in accordance with the EU Directive for European Innovation Partnership Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability in North Rhine-Westphalia, Düsseldorf – Chair (since August 2023) and member (since 2014)
EIP-Agrar.NRW has been in existence since 2014. It is a funding instrument designed to actively shape social challenges and accelerate innovation in Europe. The European Commission expects that the increased funding for innovation will enable the agricultural, forestry, food, and horticultural sectors to continue to make an important contribution to a stable supply of high-quality food in the future. They must do so under considerable pressure to adapt, for example due to climate change, the loss of biodiversity, and society's demands on primary production. The European Innovation Partnership “Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability” (EIP-Agrar.NRW) aims to promote innovation processes and improve the transfer of innovation to the agricultural, forestry, food, and horticultural sectors. The Ministry of Agriculture and Consumer Protection of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia supports the formation of European Innovation Partnerships in the agricultural sector. An eight-member interdisciplinary panel of experts evaluates the draft proposals. Prof. Dr. Karin Schnitker was a member of the panel of experts in the first two calls for proposals and was elected chair of the panel in the third call for proposals.
